Current status of intra-operative graft assessment: Should it be the standard of care for coronary artery bypass graft surgery?
Journal of Cardiac Surgery 2018 May
The "Achilles heel" of coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery is graft patency. While long-term patency is determined by the type of conduit and the progression of graft and native vessel disease, short-term patency is affected by intra-operative technical issues. Transit-time flow measurements and epicardial ultrasound have been shown to accurately assess intra-operative graft patency. This review will examine the evidence to support the premise that intra-operative graft assessment is essential in determining graft patency and should be the standard of care when performing CABG surgery.
